Also in Three by Annie Dillard: The Writing Life, An American Childhood, Pilgrim at Tinker Creek
Dillard writes about the fierce and uncompromising working life of the writer who, armed only with pickaxe and headlamp, struggles unseen, deep underground, to mine her own vein of gold. She doesn’t talk about the technical aspects of writing; she evokes the writer’s private field of combat, brilliantly, with humorous anecdote and vivid metaphor. Highly recommended especially if you write, but all creators will recognize this experience.
